Mumbai: The deposition of David Headley in the 26/11 terror attack case, lifting of ban on entry of women in the Haji Ali dargah and Shani shrine in Shingnapur and the Sheena Bora case kept courts in Maharashtra busy in 2016.

Other cases which hogged the limelight during the year gone by were the high court decision allowing the release of "Udta Punjab" which was embroiled in a battle with the censor board and bail to Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi in a defamation case over his alleged comment against RSS on Mahatma Gandhi's assassination.
